Loads of hot new games appear in New Business, and we answer your E3 emails!
http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/rfn/34752
It's our first show back from E3, and the gang of four is all here to welcome you to a post-E3 world of Nintendo. We kick off with games games games, many of them quite new. Gui has very early impressions of New Super Luigi U, while Jonny tries Animal Crossing for the first time with New Leaf on 3DS. Lindy catches up with the recently virtualized Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages, and James is utterly delighted by the wacky Project X Zone demo. On the second round of New Business, you'll hear Guillaume's interesting comparison of Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon to Wario Land 2, while Jonny takes a look at The Denpa Men 2, an eShop sequel that goes far beyond its recent predecessor.
We originally tried to get Billy on for Listener Mail, but he was pulled away by work at the last minute and will hopefully be back for a full show very soon. The regular crew take on some pretty heavy questions about Nintendo's performance at E3, and what can be done in the aftermath. The emails indicate a wide range of reactions to this year's Nintendo lineup and E3 strategy, and you'll hear some disagreements among us on the show, too. Whether we plan to swim in a pile of 2D platformers or a puddle of our own tears, one thing is clear: it's summer (in the northern hemisphere), and we all want to go swimming.
Help fill the pool with your own questions and comments, and you can be part of the summer fun on a near-future episode! All the cool kids are doing it. And in case you missed the link last time, do check out Jonny's E3 discussion with some of his podcasting heroes over at Weekend Confirmed.

Decent Game Outsourced to Some American Company Because We, Quite Frankly, Have No Idea What You Non-Japanese Guys Wanthg101 is the last site on earth from i expected to hear statements like "japanese games suck".
You guys have been hyping Retro's new game and making me excited because it was a mystery for so long and now that it's announced a DKCR sequel is a big letdown.And whose fault is this? Why is this company is even hyped that much? Half of Nintendo's internal studios have put twice the games during the same or shorter timespan. And not just shovelware mind you, those were absolute top tier stuff like Galaxy games, Wario titles and Rhythm Heaven titles (just personal favorites from the top of my head). Is this because this company is located in US?
Going back to the cost angle, that's one area Nintendo could use, since neither of the other consoles have backwards compatibility (less important if you already have the prior system) and both require an external device to do off-TV play or touchscreen controls, Nintendo could really make the other guys look expensive if they wanted to.

The problem with that is the vast majority of the populous buying the new consoles already probably own multiple devices that allows touch screen controls for Xbone and PS4.
How much of a price difference is the Wii U really when you consider needing a HDD among other things.
